And, yes, indeed it appears Beyonce is “starring” in a Sexiest Women of the Century issue, which we suppose means she is… the sexiest woman of the century? The lede on GQ’s feature is actually “this is the sexiest woman of the last 13 years.” Huh.

If Beyonce being photographed by Terry Richardson wasn’t a huge enough reason to eyeroll at this whole celebrity circlejerk, here’s a quote from her interview, on why she’ll be performing at the Half Time show:

“One of the reasons I connect to the Super Bowl is that I approach my shows like an athlete,” she told the magazine. “You know how they sit down and watch whoever they’re going to play and study themselves? That’s how I treat this. I watch my performances, and I wish I could just enjoy them, but I see the light that was late. I see, ‘Oh God, that hair did not work.’ Or ‘I should never do that again.’ I try to perfect myself. I want to grow, and I’m always eager for new information.”

One of the reasons she “connects” to the Super Bowl is that Pepsi, who’s sponsoring it, paid her 50 million dollars. Also, we don’t know how critiquing one’s own hair means one approaches things like “an athlete.”

Anyway. You can’t say anything bad about Beyonce on the internet, so here’s another shot:

Didn’t she just have a kid? When were these pics taken? This is not body snarking, promise, she looks fab, although why people find that semi-squatting position sexy i’ll never know…

Right? It’s a “peeing in the woods and trying not to get it on my feet” pose.

The cover photo is hot but they totally photoshopped the gap between her legs to make it look bigger. That is SOOOO ANNOYING. That woman has hips and ass, and she is beautiful. No one, NO ONE, is so flat on that part of the leg. Not even Victoria’s Secret models. In real life it is curved going up to the crotch, but it’s just totally flat on the left side of the photo. When I was literally a twig I still had a curve right there. Beyonce is perfect, why do they feel the need to photoshop her?

Surely, the next 87 years will bring nothing, but unsexy woman. Beyoncé is the last of this most precious species and we must honor her now…while we still can.
